you’re perfect and juicy

Deep from a jungle somewhere

The perfect fruit

And some salt for some flair

Mango, let the man go

I love mangos

Hard to peel

But fun to eat

Why not add to a frozen treat

Mangonada with chamoy

Oh boy!

Mangos and coconut

The tropical pair

Add some rice

And I’m so there.

Mango with salsa

chips if you please?

Dried mango, fresh mango

I’ll take it each and every way

I don’t mind.

Mango is here to stay!

Mango mongo

Give me some fresh sticky fruit!

Can you cut it for me please?

It’s such a tough fruit.
